Thats right, I dropped Pam off at the east entrance and the plan was to drive around to the waterfront and pick her up with her haul of hairy wings and beer. Waterfront was shut off for Regatta parade? Picked her back up on east side and she said KFCgull was being jack hammered up. Hopefully they're expanding or might not get her to come back again. Hope noone changes their vacation plans due to this.

Sorry guys-we're in transition to our new location on Kaya Korona and hope to be open there before the end of the month. We'll have a real drive-thru then so you won't have to do the "circuit" of dropping off/driving around (or putting on dry clothes, or even shirts or shoes that matter).

Oh I was very very concerned. I always make it a point to indulge in some KFC on Bonaire.

Cheezinator, it is the road to Rincon, which runs parallel to Brights Blvd.

One question to all chicken lovers. Is the Bonaire KFC any different than the USA's KFC? I do indulge occasionally in a wing or two but I've never tried Bonaires KFC? Am I missing something?

Yup, you'll be able to get $2 heinekens at the drive-thru. We'll be able to sell Brights too. And just get your butt here for the job, training starts next week!

WOOOHOOO....on the heinneeesss....I don't think I can get there before training, but can I take a "crash course" next time I'm on island? I hope it's before "Dave"...lol...

I've been told Karel's pier and Richard's pier are washed out, as well as the fisherman's pier just south of Yellow Sub's (all the planks up)...it is crazy out there. The police have the seaside road blocked off, so we'll have to wait for this to pass before we can see what Mother Nature has done to us. The waves are crashing over the road-it's quite a show. People have even called to tell us that the waves are going thru the mall (old location). Wish the beach cams were up (or easy to view-I'm having trouble getting to that site-guess we're all there?).

Of course that was personal, disclaimers aside. I'm the only KFC here, and it's the only source of income for my 14+ employees and me. Sheesh.

What is the projected opening date Ruth?

By Ruth van Tilburg (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #946) on Tuesday, October 14, 2008 - 4:56 pm: |
Aiming for 23rd, but this storm is setting us back (a true "Don't Stop the Carnival" situation-no one's working, everyone's watching the sea...). I'll be happy if it's before the end of the month.
|
By ***Boat Chick****Tink*** (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #7137) on Tuesday, October 14, 2008 - 4:56 pm: |
And I might add, that besides Dave and I (ok, I'm assuming Ruth will give us the job, and I want the hat back from Dave BTW), Ruth's employees are all local antillean, and what she does for them...well, bless your heart Ruth!

I had to break the very sad news to Bob that KFC may not be open while we are on Bonaire. A little while later I found him looking at the KLM cancellation policy and looking at his boss' work schedule. We live in a very rural area and he doesn't get fast food. Our nearest KFC is about 30 miles from home and he hasn't worked out drive thru yet!!!
|
By Ron Folds (BonaireTalker - Post #49) on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 - 6:39 am: |
Glad to hear KFC is going to be part of our future trips. With Banks failing, Terrorist trying to kill me because I am from the west, Gas prices coming down but still way more than they should be - just where does the way you kill a chicken prior to placing it in boiling oil fit into all this?
|
By Ruth van Tilburg (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #950) on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 - 9:20 am: |
Thanks Ron & Julia (and everyone else who pm'd me)-23rd would work well for me too--it is my birthday (39 again, getting better at it every year!). Now, if only Omar would lighten up on Bonaire-man, this weather sucks!

By carter farrell (BonaireTalker - Post #89) on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 - 10:56 am: |
I can't believe that chickens could create such as stir. This is one of the larger forum posts although most of the comments seem rather benign.
